The rigour demanded by that program was laughable, and I saw nothing to indicate that the doctoral program was any better. My BA in history was far more demanding, rewarding and provided more useful skills than anything offered by my "master's" program.

Rather, you argue that you have successfully scammed your way into academia. You and your ilk are rotting higher education from the inside.Spatulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854980811662099891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2641857271501346967.post-1077678385417532182012-05-22T19:24:37.153-05:002012-05-22T19:24:37.153-05:00Oh my.
